Introduction
Thank you for your interest in this book. Sinceyou are interested in preparing a meal for your girlfriend, Iassume that you are in a happy relationshipCongratulations!
You have probably thought many times about howto impress your girlfriend. You want to do something new, somethingexciting to present yourself in a good way. I often find myself ina situation when I want to do something original, interesting, andpleasantly impressivethat will not empty my pockets as well. Whilethere are so many possibilities, it is so difficult to choose andpick one!
Let's see: attending the movies and a restaurantis too easy. Going to a party and getting drunk together is notgoing to impress her...unless its a private night club withcelebrities at every table. Clubbing or partying is a lot of fun,but we are looking for a way to impress her, not to get herdrunk!
Fancy restaurants with a view of some impressiveskyline with live music are great, but sometimes they are just tooexpensive and you may come off as trying too hard, a bit too early.They are, of course, fantastic for that important day when you wantto make a proposalbut we arent there yet, are we?
Going away for a weekend sounds great if you arealready close enough, and she is comfortable with a trip together.Inviting her for a trip requires days of planning, lots of moneyand, again, she needs to be comfortable with the idea; this wouldalmost always imply sharing a room for one or several days and sexis presumed to happen.
There are many other options, of course; I willcover them later in other How to Impress books. In this book, weare going to talk about inviting your girlfriend for a romanticlunch or dinner. We are going to cook and serve her a nicemeal.
Why would you want to do that? For starters,women are attracted to men who can cook and to men who candemonstrate their attention and ability to please. Your invitationwill make her feel very special. Cooking involves dealing withsharp, pointy objects and fire. In my mind, these things areabsolutely manly; there is no reason to think that if you declareto your girlfriend that you can cook, she will think that you arenot a real man. Quite the opposite. She may even want to test yourother manly abilities after dessert!
I personally enjoy cooking and eventuallyestablished a few simple recipes, which are quick to prepare, donot require going to a cooking seminar, and deliver tasty results.I also discovered that peopleincluding friends and relatives, tomy biggest surprisehave been impressed by my cooking. They havebeen even more impressedby the fact that I was able to set the table, I could serve themsomething that was to their taste, and we had fun while having ourdinner.
Just think about it: you get your girlfriend inyour dining room, backyard, or maybe out on a balcony. You serveher something delicious to eat, offer her a glass wine, and adessert. What are the chances that after you finish your dessertshe may also want to see that painting in your bedroom? Justkidding, you dont need to have a painting.
For me, there is also the benefit of the senseof accomplishment and the fact that I have pleased someone whom Ilike. It is the combination of the nice food that you prepared byyourself, enjoyable company, tasty dessert, delicious wine, and thesex after all the effort, if it (hopefully) happens.
What do you need to know to make it happen? Onlya few things:
- You should know how to cook at least one simpleand tasty dish.
- You should know how to prepare your place and howto serve the meal.
- You should have the courage to invite yourgirlfriend and get her agreement to come over to your place;and,
- One other thing: don't forget to buy some flowers,wine, and those rubbery things.
Are these things difficult? Not at all.
Would you like to give it a try? In case you do,I am here to help you.
One of the challenges, in my experience, is thatyou need to go through many websites and books to get all variousbits of information together to prepare for one night. It caneasily take days to prepare.
Let's make it simple for you. I have gathered allof the most important facts and tips in this book. The book is notvery long, and it is done this way on purpose. You are not here toprepare for an accounting exam. You do not need to sift through 450pages to find out that you need to buy some organic salmon andbasil for your date. The book is short, so you can read it in a fewof hours and get exactly theinformation that you needand quickly too! This book is filled tothe brim with simple and informative facts.
In case you are interested in those other longerand thicker books, you can, of course, read them as well. I canguarantee that it is better to have a few simple tried and testedrecipes, rather than a book or a website with tens of thousands ofrecipes, from which you will struggle to pick one or two.
Think about fancy restaurants, they usuallyoffer very few options on their menus, because each option is aguaranteed success. Think about the confusion when you go to arestaurant that gives you a menu the size of a brick. You dontwant any confusion, you want something simple, tried, and tested.Eventually, I want you to need a book on cooking breakfast for yourgirlfriend. Well, that book is going to be available very soon,because you are going to need it!
